SPEED ON THE RIVER
Two Dave aprt lachcn Eadnlcc B m.
Kace ea the noiMtnpt-Tbe VI In
ner .
Toe Davenport Democrat of yesterday
morning thus describes the yaoht rac
between the Luc; acdSarshon the river
Sntniday art?rann: . !
After a little de ay the two yachts
t)o ,kel tfi)r a iet cl speerl, the Lucy,
owned by Rev. M. A. Johhsou and N.
G. Tendletoo, and tue .Sstrsh, tie propi
erty of Charles Anieredn and Norm Uur
dick, got off almost perfectly lined and
started for the red buoy two miles down
the river that marked the turning point.
The Sarsh had erased the imaginary
)ine that led from Jin Fleming's eye to
most anvhere at 2:.")2J. tbe L icy cut
t'.at! it 10 seconds later. Both craft had
mtiosail aad jib set, and as tbey gilded
twif ly towird the oijec ive buoy, their
shurp prows cutting the water and send
ine it in floods alont; the scupoera, the
sight was ft" impusini; or:e. To those
who were on hoard tlie craft the race hud
an exhiliaratinfj tingn that it could not
possess far the on looker. These were:
On board the Lucy: Iiev. M. A Johu
Bun. N G. Prfodictm. Walter J.hn
sin, Reginald Johnson, F. J. Wa'z,
Perry Uictiardoon, 1. L Sears,
W. R. Wtir, F. W. Weir, W. P.Christy
and a Democrat pencil pusher who had
reen picked up for baling. On board the
Sursh Were Charles Andersoo, Charles
Uowir. George Fay, E R. Clayton,
Charles Falkner, Hal Dicker, anrl George
Hseley. 1 he Sas!i ctrried 1,200 pounds
of ballast in tbe shaj e of Kand bas.
The tiller of ihe Lucy was in the hands
of Skipper Walrer J hnenn, while that
of the Sarsh was handled by the rpore
sentaliveof the maiefty of the law, Xight
Capt. Falkner, who had doSed bis dignity
for tbe time and replaced it wuh a flin
rel thirt. Char'.ie Anderson was ed
drissed with becom ng respect by the
oiliers hs "Captain."
For the first half-mile the race whs
as pretty a one as could have been
wished. Both boat kept a straight
course side by side tnd were evidently
evenly matched. Then the Lucy
slowly drew ahead and soon crossed
the bow of her competitor. Before
the buoy wa9 reached for the turn the
boats cbangtd places, and the S.trsh
was in tbe lead a bundred van's. In
making this turn the Lucy virtually lost
the race. The Sarsh made a clean turn,
tacking but once, while tbe Lucy, having
shifted sail too soon, wus compelled to
make a sec nd tack to round the buoy.
h.'a t,u.- wus -au'.Iy poiatid up-strca
t :e Sax? h wp.s a quartt r of a mile in the
ies i.
The rest of the story is soon told. The
Sarsh rounded the uoner buoy at 25J
minutes after 3, tbe Lu:y five minutes be
hind . The yachts 'tar ted over the course
aain for the second aiid last time, but
before the Lucy had proceeded a mile she
met with an accident that retired her
from the race. The mist snapped about
eight feet from the top. and tbe broken
end, with sails and ricking, came tumb
ling into the boat. Fortunately no one
was hu't.
The Sarsh finished h r course, picking
op the Lucy on her way back and towing
htrin. Although ban iicapped in this
manner she got back to the starting point
at 4:15, ber time for the race being one
hour and 23 minutes.
The Caprice, which has been saihne
without a jib for a couple of days, will
be in good repair by nest Saturday, when
there is promise of a three-cornered race,
as the Lucy will propat ly again be in trim
by that time.
